1 Corinthians 14:11-40

14:11

Therefore
<3767>

if
<3362> (0)

I know
<1492> (5762)

not
<3362>

the meaning
<1411>

of the voice
<5456>_,

I shall be
<2071> (5704)

unto him that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

a barbarian
<915>_,

and
<2532>

he that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

[shall be] a barbarian
<915>

unto
<1722>

me
<1698>_.

14:12

Even
<2532>

so
<3779>

ye
<5210>_,

forasmuch as
<1893>

ye are
<2075> (5748)

zealous
<2207>

of spiritual
<4151>

[gifts], seek
<2212> (5720)

that
<2443>

ye may excel
<4052> (5725)

to
<4314>

the edifying
<3619>

of the church
<1577>_.

{of spiritual gifts: Gr. of spirits}

14:13

Wherefore
<1355>

let him that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>

pray
<4336> (5737)

that
<2443>

he may interpret
<1329> (5725)_.

14:14

For
<1063>

if
<1437>

I pray
<4336> (5741)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>_,

my
<3450>

spirit
<4151>

prayeth
<4336> (5736)_,

but
<1161>

my
<3450>

understanding
<3563>

is
<2076> (5748)

unfruitful
<175>_.

14:15

What
<5101>

is it
<2076> (5748)

then
<3767>_?

I will pray
<4336> (5695)

with the spirit
<4151>_,

and
<1161>

I will pray
<4336> (5695)

with the understanding
<3563>

also
<2532>_:

I will sing
<5567> (5692)

with the spirit
<4151>_,

and
<1161>

I will sing
<5567> (5692)

with the understanding
<3563>

also
<2532>_.

14:16

Else
<1893>

when
<1437>

thou shalt bless
<2127> (5661)

with the spirit
<4151>_,

how
<4459>

shall he that occupieth
<378> (5723)

the room
<5117>

of the unlearned
<2399>

say
<2046> (5692)

Amen
<281>

at
<1909>

thy
<4674>

giving of thanks
<2169>_,

seeing
<1894>

he understandeth
<1492> (5758)

not
<3756>

what
<5101>

thou sayest
<3004> (5719)_?

14:17

For
<1063>

thou
<4771>

verily
<3303>

givest thanks
<2168> (5719)

well
<2573>_,

but
<235>

the other
<2087>

is
<3618> (0)

not
<3756>

edified
<3618> (5743)_.

14:18

I thank
<2168> (5719)

my
<3450>

God
<2316>_,

I speak
<2980> (5723)

with tongues
<1100>

more than
<3123>

ye
<5216>

all
<3956>_:

14:19

Yet
<235>

in
<1722>

the church
<1577>

I had rather
<2309> (5719)

speak
<2980> (5658)

five
<4002>

words
<3056>

with
<1223>

my
<3450>

understanding
<3563>_,

that
<2443>

[by my voice] I might teach
<2727> (5661)

others
<243>

also
<2532>_,

than
<2228>

ten thousand
<3463>

words
<3056>

in
<1722>

an [unknown] tongue
<1100>_.

14:20

Brethren
<80>_,

be
<1096> (5737)

not
<3361>

children
<3813>

in understanding
<5424>_:

howbeit
<235>

in malice
<2549>

be ye children
<3515> (5720)_,

but
<1161>

in understanding
<5424>

be
<1096> (5737)

men
<5046>_.

{men: Gr. perfect, or, of a ripe age}

14:21

In
<1722>

the law
<3551>

it is written
<1125> (5769)_,

<3754>

With
<1722>

[men of] other tongues
<2084>

and
<2532>

other
<1722> <2087>

lips
<5491>

will I speak
<2980> (5692)

unto this
<5129>

people
<2992>_;

and
<2532>

yet for all
<3779>

that will they
<1522> (0)

not
<3761>

hear
<1522> (5695)

me
<3450>_,

saith
<3004> (5719)

the Lord
<2962>_.

14:22

Wherefore
<5620>

tongues
<1100>

are
<1526> (5748)

for
<1519>

a sign
<4592>_,

not
<3756>

to them that believe
<4100> (5723)_,

but
<235>

to them that believe not
<571>_:

but
<1161>

prophesying
<4394>

[serveth] not
<3756>

for them that believe not
<571>_,

but
<235>

for them which believe
<4100> (5723)_.

14:23

If
<1437>

therefore
<3767>

the whole
<3650>

church
<1577>

be come together
<4905> (5632)

into
<1909>

one place
<846>_,

and
<2532>

all
<3956>

speak
<2980> (5725)

with tongues
<1100>_,

and
<1161>

there come in
<1525> (5632)

[those that are] unlearned
<2399>_,

or
<2228>

unbelievers
<571>_,

will they
<2046> (0)

not
<3756>

say
<2046> (5692)

that
<3754>

ye are mad
<3105> (5736)_?

14:24

But
<1161>

if
<1437>

all
<3956>

prophesy
<4395> (5725)_,

and
<1161>

there come in
<1525> (5632)

one
<5100>

that believeth not
<571>_,

or
<2228>

[one] unlearned
<2399>_,

he is convinced
<1651> (5743)

of
<5259>

all
<3956>_,

he is judged
<350> (5743)

of
<5259>

all
<3956>_:

14:25

And
<2532>

thus
<3779>

are
<1096> (0)

the secrets
<2927>

of his
<846>

heart
<2588>

made
<1096> (5736)

manifest
<5318>_;

and
<2532>

so
<3779>

falling down
<4098> (5631)

on
<1909>

[his] face
<4383>

he will worship
<4352> (5692)

God
<2316>_,

and report
<518> (5723)

that
<3754>

God
<2316>

is
<2076> (5748)

in
<1722>

you
<5213>

of a truth
<3689>_.

14:26

How
<5101>

is it
<2076> (5748)

then
<3767>_,

brethren
<80>_?

when
<3752>

ye come together
<4905> (5741)_,

every one
<1538>

of you
<5216>

hath
<2192> (5719)

a psalm
<5568>_,

hath
<2192> (5719)

a doctrine
<1322>_,

hath
<2192> (5719)

a tongue
<1100>_,

hath
<2192> (5719)

a revelation
<602>_,

hath
<2192> (5719)

an interpretation
<2058>_.

Let
<1096> (0)

all things
<3956>

be done
<1096> (5634)

unto
<4314>

edifying
<3619>_.

14:27

If
<1535>

any man
<5100>

speak
<2980> (5719)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>_,

[let it be] by
<2596>

two
<1417>_,

or
<2228>

at the most
<4118>

[by] three
<5140>_,

and
<2532>

[that] by
<303>

course
<3313>_;

and
<2532>

let
<1329> (0)

one
<1520>

interpret
<1329> (5720)_.

{two...: by two or three sentences separately}

14:28

But
<1161>

if
<3362> (0)

there be
<5600> (5753)

no
<3362>

interpreter
<1328>_,

let him keep silence
<4601> (5720)

in
<1722>

the church
<1577>_;

and
<1161>

let him speak
<2980> (5720)

to himself
<1438>_,

and
<2532>

to God
<2316>_.

14:29

<1161>@ Let
<2980> (0)

the prophets
<4396>

speak
<2980> (5720)

two
<1417>

or
<2228>

three
<5140>_,

and
<2532>

let
<1252> (0)

the other
<243>

judge
<1252> (5720)_.

14:30

If
<1161> <1437>

[any thing] be revealed
<601> (5686)

to another
<243>

that sitteth by
<2521> (5740)_,

let
<4601> (0)

the first
<4413>

hold his peace
<4601> (5720)_.

14:31

For
<1063>

ye may
<1410> (5736)

all
<3956>

prophesy
<4395> (5721)

one by one
<2596> <1520>_,

that
<2443>

all
<3956>

may learn
<3129> (5725)_,

and
<2532>

all
<3956>

may be comforted
<3870> (5747)_.

14:32

And
<2532>

the spirits
<4151>

of the prophets
<4396>

are subject
<5293> (5743)

to the prophets
<4396>_.

14:33

For
<1063>

God
<2316>

is
<2076> (5748)

not
<3756>

[the author] of confusion
<181>_,

but
<235>

of peace
<1515>_,

as
<5613>

in
<1722>

all
<3956>

churches
<1577>

of the saints
<40>_.

{confusion: Gr. tumult, or, unquietness}

14:34

Let
<4601> (0)

your
<5216>

women
<1135>

keep silence
<4601> (5720)

in
<1722>

the churches
<1577>_:

for
<1063>

it is
<2010> (0)

not
<3756>

permitted
<2010> (5769)

unto them
<846>

to speak
<2980> (5721)_;

but
<235>

[they are commanded] to be under obedience
<5293> (5733)_,

as
<2531>

also
<2532>

saith
<3004> (5719)

the law
<3551>_.

14:35

And
<1161>

if
<1487>

they will
<2309> (5719)

learn
<3129> (5629)

any thing
<5100>_,

let them ask
<1905> (5720)

their
<2398>

husbands
<435>

at
<1722>

home
<3624>_:

for
<1063>

it is
<2076> (5748)

a shame
<149>

for women
<1135>

to speak
<2980> (5721)

in
<1722>

the church
<1577>_.

14:36

What
<2228>_?

came
<1831> (0)

the word
<3056>

of God
<2316>

out
<1831> (5627)

from
<575>

you
<5216>_?

or
<2228>

came it
<2658> (5656)

unto
<1519>

you
<5209>

only
<3441>_?

14:37

If any man
<1536>

think himself
<1380> (5719)

to be
<1511> (5750)

a prophet
<4396>_,

or
<2228>

spiritual
<4152>_,

let him acknowledge
<1921> (5720)

that
<3754>

the things
<3739>

that I write
<1125> (5719)

unto you
<5213>

are
<1526> (5748)

the commandments
<1785>

of the Lord
<2962>_.

14:38

But
<1161>

if any man
<1536>

be ignorant
<50> (5719)_,

let him be ignorant
<50> (5720)_.

14:39

Wherefore
<5620>_,

brethren
<80>_,

covet
<2206> (5720)

to prophesy
<4395> (5721)_,

and
<2532>

forbid
<2967> (5720)

not
<3361>

to speak
<2980> (5721)

with tongues
<1100>_.

14:40

Let
<1096> (0)

all things
<3956>

be done
<1096> (5737)

decently
<2156>

and
<2532>

in
<2596>

order
<5010>_.
